Looking for some whitewalls
So, I love the look of whitewall tires...fat ones, especially on a Heritage. Anyone have any recommendations for some good, fat whitewall tires? The fatter the better! Also, if anyone has any pics they can post of their bikes with WW's, they would be appreciated!

Think you might have some trouble finding really fat whitewalls. Most of the manufacturers that I know of make a replacement whitewalls to fit the OEM Harley/Dunlop tire. I'm sure what you're looking for is out there...just might be hard to find.

Yeah, I thought that might be the case. If I have to I'll go with those. The dealership in my area won't sell me anything but HD OEM tires, is that normal? I mean, I know they are out to get as much HD product on the road as they can, but not selling any aftermarket tires?

Metzeler and Avon both make Wide White Walls. Order from american moto tire for the best price. Google it up. I have a 16" avon on the rear and a 21" avon on the front, whitewalls obviously. I haven't tried the metzler whitewalls but did ahve their blackwalls on my bike for a while. They were good tires too. Now you gotta ask yourself if wear or stickiness is more important. Dunlop makes the 16" WWW's too and I would imagine the dealer has them or can get them. I do my tires myself of take the wheels off and take them to an indy as it saves me a lot of cash. See my gallery for more pics.
